RPC Stubs Implemented by Hand

<teythoon> btw, anyone knows why libfshelp/start-translator-long.c
implements the fsys_startup rpc by hand?
<braunr> teythoon: no idea
<teythoon> maybe b/c of the need to specify a timeout? can one do that with
the mig stubs?
<braunr> yes
<braunr> select used to be implemented that way
